J is for my Daughter Jenny

Hi Everyone~

Today I am posting for Jenny Matlock's Alphabet Thursday. Well, this week's letter is "J."

I thought I would introduce you to my daughter, Jenny~I think that the photo above looks like a glamour shot, but it's actually a photo that one of her friends took at home.



Jenny is an anthropologist and just completed her second Master's Degree at Emory University in Atlanta. Her first one was from The New School in New York...and now, she is traveling across the country on a road trip. That girl is hard to keep up with!

I should tell you this...When I was 16, I went to see the movie "Love Story." Right then and there, I decided that when I got married and had a little girl, I would name her Jenny. Some dreams come true~

I hope that all of your dreams come true!

And isn't it amazing that I would be telling this story for a link up party at Jenny Matlock's?

XO
Cindy

Linking this to Alphabet Thursday

Oops!!! And one more thing~I just realized that Thursday is my ONE YEAR blog anniversary--thank you for being part of this journey!!!

People Who Know Me Would Say: said...

She's lovely. I just saw Ali McGraw in an old movie last night and it brought 'Jenny' to mind.

One of my dearest friends is named Jenny. Of course, I don't call her that.

Diane said...

Yes!! Beautiful and intelligent--wonderful combination.
And you know what--I LOVED that movie too and yep, I have a daughter named Jenny aka Jen.

NanaDiana said...

What a beautiful, beautiful girl!! I'll bet you are over-the-moon proud of her. Love Story was one of the first movies I ever saw. It's funny about a week ago MyHero and I were talking about Ali McGraw and how that movie kind of defined her and she just kind of fell off the map after that. It's a small world- the name and the link to Jenny's party.

Congrats on your one year blogaversary-You did good!!! xo Diana

Donnie said...
